i went out to imm wif my friends after chinese supplementary. we took neoprints and it's the first time we're taking it together. that machine has a spoilt handstick. so, we couldn't move the items upward. in the end, jan's face was covered by the words which we had no idea what it meant. somemore, the words were chosen because we couldn't move the handstick, neither could we delete it. albeit it's such a spoiler, we had fun!


this is the one which covered jan's face... :P

A Psalm of Life

Tell me not, in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream!
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem.

Life is real! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not its goal;
Dust thou art, to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul.

Not enjoyment, and not sorrow,
Is our destined end or way;
But to act that each to-morrow
Find us farther than to-day.

In the world's broad field of battle,
In the bivouac of Life,
Be not like dumb, driven cattle!
Be a hero in the strife!

Trust no Future, how'er pleasant!
Let the dead Past bury its dead!
Act-act in the living Present,
Heart within and God o'erhead!

Lives of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime,
And, departing, leave behind us
Footprints on the Sands of time,

Footprints, that perhaps another,
Sailing o'er life's solemn main,
A forlorn and shipwrecked brother
Seeing, shall take heart again.

Let us then be up and doing
With a heart for any fate;
Still achieving, still pursuing
Learn to labour and to wait.

ms junaidah gave us this poem for analysis. i like this poem. it's nice and motivating... "Life is real! Life is earnest!" that's what i firmly believe. i like stanza 5 the most. trust no future. we shouldn't take anything for granted, even our precious lives.

i love my frenz. i love my class. i love everything about being in a secondary school.

i skipped music lesson today and went to watch "mean girls" with jan, xx and haw yin. the show's nice, but i can see that jan's disappointed that wenz couldn't follow us. we had decided 2 watch "ella enchanted" but because wenz had to go home early, so we changed to watch "mean girls" instead to suit her curfew. but in the end, she didn't go anyway. and jan had been telling me how much she yearned 2 watch "ella enchanted". anyway, mean girls's a funny show. it's a bit bimbotic though.

i went to westmall for f.i.r's autograph session! i was outside the mall, queueing up to get their autograph, so i can't see them perform. sis abandoned me and went inside to watch with li hwee. i was so pathetic. i stood there all by myself for nearly 2 hrs before she came out to accompany me. i was messaging all the while and praying hard that it wouldn't rain. i should have gotten myself something to do. i didn't expect the queue to be so long. i was shocked when i saw the queue. afterall, i'm quite inexperienced as it's my first time queueing, so forgive me.

i saw f.i.r!!! faye's so cute... she's like a barbie doll, with extremely red blusher. she's really very cute. she's nice and i like her. she bent down her head 2 sign my cd n she smiled so broadly when she looked up n shook my hand. i tot she would forget that it's my cd because i was already moving forward to real there. omg! she's so cute!

during english lesson, ms leong asked us to make a crossword puzzle for each group. we had to describe our friends and use their names to make a crossword puzzle. it's fun.

after lesson, everybody gathered around and looked at our "masterpiece". we laughed our heads off. mt was described as "a girl who looks friendly but has violent (explosive) nature" and kexin was described with "spiky hairs on the legs". they debated and tried to beat up people in my group. luckily i looked innocent enough to escape this... :P

i'd gotten elva's cd. the packaging's so classic. i like the card wif all of elva's albums, from her 1st to the 7th. and there's a short description on her every album at the back. it's so nicely done n the color's like recalling back the past. the album's cover is the side-view of elva. someone's helping her 2 make-up. so beautiful n artistic. i like it.... >.<

lunchtime, my friend n i tried to stuff papers inside each other's blouse. wenz was damn funny. i haven't even pulled her collar when she jumped up and started shouting, "oh no, the paper's gone inside. quick, help me! i cannot find the paper." DUH! of course she couldn't find the paper.. i just touched her and she started shouting... the most comical part was when everyone pulled their blouse's collar tightly to their neck to prevent other people from stuffing the paper in. it's so funny and tl and i were running around the classroom. i'll never have such fun again after my o levels...

watched xun yi cao n cried n cried. the plot is so touching.



opps. i can't find the show's scenes.

today's youth day. so i went out wif my sis and finally took fotos with her. we were decorating real slowly and we couldn't decide which photo we wanted, in the end, the machine chose the photos which we didn't decorate. it's such a pity, but it's nice. =)
